How Long Does the Process Take?

The exact time for the processes is difficult to calculate, as it depends primarily on how quickly the person provides all their information and documents and secondly, how long the administration takes to resolve the case.

Regarding processes for highly skilled professionals, the administration can take up to a month to approve the residence permit. It is also important to note that if the person needs to apply for a visa in their country of origin, the process time will extend by around an additional 45 days.

Family-based permits and other procedures typically take between 3 and 8 months for the immigration office to issue approval.

Finally, the Spanish nationality application is taking around a year for Ibero-American applicants. Around 6 to 8 months for approval, and the rest of the time is for the oath in the civil registry, receiving the birth certificate, and obtaining the official Spanish documents.
